The banana made me do it

Maria is talking to her fruit again. This time, in the midst of a meeting (regarding nothing edible I might add), she said, "Oh. You're gross." in a very disapproving tone. The half-eaten banana was banished to the drawer. Couple of things about this exchange: First, the obvious. The banana can't talk back. Second, if the banana is gross, maybe the garbage would be a better option? But then Maria would have no one to talk to.
